Reason: Editing war by IP users that changes his IP. He was originally block due his conduct here. He kept changing his IP to evade block and kept editing using IP's 83.determined mostly on the above articles talk pages, on of his talk page (and also on Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk 17 of march) mostly attacking other users. One of the IP's was taken to ANI and determined to be a sock (User talk:83.142.111.2). He keeps edit warring trying to reinstate content written during the block and that seeks conflict and just that.Rpo.castro (talk) 09:15, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
I’d like to point that the it is the talk pages of these articles that the IP keeps disrupting with their most recent edits.Tvx1 12:08, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent disruptive editing. Kajmer05 (talk) 11:18, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent removal of logo by different IPs. —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 12:05, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
Temporary semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Lots of spammy links being added over the last week or so. Multiple reverts. Mainly by IPs. Worth a go at temp semi protection to try to stop it in the run up to this year's competition. Blue Square Thing (talk) 12:58, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
Semi-protected for a period of two years, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. We have a long history of short periods of protection of this article which, apparently, has done nothing to mitigate the issue. Chetsford (talk) 08:44, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

Reason: Persistent Vandalism Heerasmani (talk) 17:35, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Someone is continuously readding an uncited damage estimate and vandalizing the article over the past 10 days. Hoguert (talk) 18:24, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
- Semi-protected for a period of 90 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Chetsford (talk) 08:40, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: WP:BLP and WP:CT/A-I issues. Subject was born in East Jerusalem and there is an ongoing talk page discussion about what country, if any, the infobox should mention. Nobody at all has contributed to the discussion - I shared it on the Israel and Palestine WikiProjects - but there are still IPs who add that he was born in "Israel", which is highly contentious and thoroughly disputable.

Reason: IP range persistently adds a non-free image to the article despite warnings, a note on the page saying to not do this, and even a block. The IP range was blocked yesterday and is still currently blocked, but the vandalism continues regardless. PizzaKing13 (¡Hablame!) 🍕👑 19:19, 22 March 2025 (UTC)

Reason: High level of IP vandalism. If you take a look at the revision history of the page, you will see at least two IP editors vandalising the article by falsifying the R.J. Runmel estimate stating that the Ottomans killed 3,500,000 to 4,300,000 to 5.3 or 5.7 million instead, pulling these numbers out of nowhere and not providing any source. 47.51.12.122 (talk) 23:33, 22 March 2025 (UTC)

Extended-confirmed protection: Racist vandalism 24.55.33.220 (talk) 04:49, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Chance of caste related edit-wars. Other similar lists (Rajputs, Marathas) already are protected. Ironborn392 (talk) 05:31, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: Semi-protection: Persistent vandalism – Persistent changing box office collection by IPs. Sush150 (talk) 06:48, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
Reason: High level of the IP addresses vandalism. Three reverts occurred recently. Martial Bean Dino (talk) 09:36, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
Current requests for reduction in protection level
[edit]Before posting, first discuss with the protecting admin on their talk page. Post below only if you receive no reply.
- To find out the username of the admin who protected the page, click on "history" at the top of the page, then click on "View logs for this page," which is under the title of the page. The protecting admin is the username in blue before the words "protected", "changed protection level" or "pending changes". If there are a number of entries on the log page, you might find it easier to select "Protection log" or "Pending changes log" from the dropdown menu in the blue box.
- Requests to downgrade full protection to template protection on templates and modules can be directed straight here; you do not need to ask the protecting admin first.
- Requests for removing create protection on redlinked articles are generally assisted by having a draft version of the intended article prepared beforehand.
- If you want to make spelling corrections or add uncontroversial information to a protected page, please add {{Edit fully-protected}} to the article's talk page, along with an explanation of what you want to add to the page. If the talk page is protected, please use the section below.
Check the archives if you cannot find your request. Only recently answered requests are still listed here.
Unprotection: 14 years of protection with little vandalism or disruption. Thepharoah17 (talk) 23:34, 20 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Black Kite: pinging protecting admin. Daniel Case (talk) 02:30, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
No protection: Testing whether long-term protection is still needed. I doubt that it is still needed. There has been no vandalism in the past 10 years since it was protected. The protecting admin is unfortunately not with us anymore so that is why I am requesting unprotection here. 🗽Freedoxm🗽(talk • contribs) 05:49, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

Current requests for edits to a protected page
[edit]Please request an edit directly on the protected page's talk page before posting here
Ideally, requests should be made on the article talk page rather than here.
- Unless the talk page itself is protected, you may instead add the appropriate template among
{{Edit protected}},{{Edit template-protected}},{{Edit extended-protected}}, or{{Edit semi-protected}}to the article's talk page if you would like to make a change rather than requesting it here. Doing so will automatically place the page in the appropriate category for the request to be reviewed. - Where requests are made due to the editor having a conflict of interest (COI; see Wikipedia:Suggestions for COI compliance), the
{{Edit COI}}template should be used. - Requests to move move-protected pages should be made at Wikipedia:Requested moves, not here.
- If the discussion page and the article are both protected preventing you from making an edit request, this page is the right place to make that request. Please see the top of this page for instructions on how to post requests.
- This page is not for continuing or starting discussions regarding content should both an article and its discussion page be protected. Please make a request only if you have a specific edit you wish to make.
in the section Uncontroversial technical requests, put {{subst:RMassist|Eclipse (software)|Eclipse (IDE)reason="software" says nothing about what it does}} - 2600:4040:AE89:A00:6CE3:2E6F:4377:C354 (talk) 18:16, 22 March 2025 (UTC)

"Do you want to take a survey?"
[edit]On Feb. 12, 2005, I did a random pages survey. Out of 100 random pages, only 1 was a U.S. town. That's progress. Three towns in the UK, 1 in Spain and 1 in Portugal also turned up. Overall biographies were the largest category at 22%, followed by geography with 15% total. Then Lists at 7%, Disambiguation pages at 6%.
On Feb. 24, 2006, I repeated the 100 random page survey, this time getting 5 U.S. towns. Overall, geography had 26%, biography 21%, fiction 9%, music 4%, colleges 4%, lists 3% and disambigs 4%. Clearly geography and biography are our largest areas. Music, science and business scored less than I expected. Non-individual History was hardly discernable.
Even by Feb. 2005, 100 out of almost 500,000 was not statistically significant but was as much as I had patience for.

Early Anon work, no need to bug the developers
[edit]Up to Dec 16, 2003, all the edits at these anonymous id's were mine (59 edits):
- User:64.152.154.140
- User:64.152.153.104
- User:166.90.233.102

- User:64.152.159.57
- User:64.152.154.147
More recently 1,250 or so edits on 75.41.110.200 are apparently all mine. Apparently my new ID is 75.41.109.190. There are undoubtedly many others as the earliest history of many articles was not preserved by the software.
